Agares

AGARES Dux primus sub potestate Orientis, appret benevolus in senioris hominis forma, equitans in crocodilo, & in manu accipitrem portans. Cuncta linguarum genera docet optime: fugitantes reverti facit, & permanentes fugere: prælaturas & dignitates dimittit, & tripudiare facit spiritus terræ: & est de ordine Virtutum, sub sua potestate habens triginta & unam legions.

"and makes spirits of the earth dance"] and is of the order of vertues, having under his regiment thirtie one legions.
